Hi!

Just bought new usg40W and I cant figure out why wireless speed is really slow. Thru LAN i get over 50 Mbps up and down but when using wifi it drops under 0.5 Mbps.

default configs... ideas?

    Hi @Jatama
    Due to USG40W is using for 2.4G band so it is very easier been effects by other WiFi signal.
    Is lot of interference in your environment? 

    How about your test scenario? Tested by Speedtest too ? or other else?
    How about your WiFi signaling?

    There is no other wifi signals atm. And it doesnt matter how close to AP i am with my laptop or mobile phone.

    Yup, Speedtest, web browsing, data transfer. Doesnt matter.

    Signal seems to be ok, but something kills traffic totally.

    A bit more testing after night. Speed test went thru on first run 10 / 15 Mbps but immediatly on second run it drops down under 1 / 1. Made some booting and tried again. Same thing. 1st run might be a bit higher but then it drops down...
